I work at the Port Hueneme Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center
(PHD/NSWC)
in Port Hueneme, California. We decided a few years ago to support this
event and
call it "Take Our Daughters and Sons To Work Day". Because we choose to nurture
both our daughters and our sons, we were severely criticised by the National
Organization of Women (NOW) and "The Los Angeles Times" on April 28th.
High praise indeed!!!!!
We shall continue to refuse to discriminate against any of our children.
Disclaimer: My opinions expressed here are mine and those of the majority of
us who work here at PHD/NSWC, but do not necessarily represent those of
PHD/NSWC,

I'll probably have some of my Scouts come "shadow" this summer me as I do my
work
as a computer specialist. I've got about 6 of them who want to go for Computers
merit badge.
Yours in Scouting,
